Huge offer for new Caesars IA customers
The switch to Caesars Sportsbook includes a huge offer to Iowans who want to give the sportsbook a try. New app users will have the opportunity to place their first bet, up to $5,000, bonus.
Customers get a single bet with the special officer, but they don’t have to bet the full $5,000. The winnings come as bonus bet credit. Keep in mind, it isn’t a deposit match, a no-deposit bonus or a bonus bet on your deposit or registration.
Also, if you already had the William Hill account, you aren’t eligible for the $5,000 mega-offer. But, chief marketing officer Sharon Otterman promises some great deals for loyal customers:
“In September, there’ll be other what we think are just incredible offers that Caesars is going to offer Caesars Nation. So it’s not that just that the $5,000 is ending and we go back to what we were doing in the past. There are so many more exciting offers that are about to come down in very different formats and mechanics as well.”
